Container Garden Books Hold More Than Meets The Eye

In recent years container gardening has become my main source of bright colorful annuals in the garden. I’ve come to enjoy the versatility and creative opportunity that containers provide. It followed that I would pick up some books to further inspire creating containers with interesting plant combinations. The result is several to review for readers here.

The surprise was how much the gardener can get from what might at first seem very specific books for a small niche of readers. Yet, because filling a container with plants is something like a microcosm of creating a larger garden, many of the lessons gleaned from a good book on this topic can be transferred into general garden planning. and while some books are always better than others, the container gardening books were particularly rich in exciting and creatively stimulating photographs.

I started out writing articles that would become "Ilona's Garden", and after scattered posting of my reviews for gardening books , I decided to start a site just for those reviews... The Garden Librarian.
If I were a librarian this is the bookshelf I would most love filling with books.
